old concept, poor execution

It does have potential, but I find it problematic:
1) The ball doesn't start precisely at the same point as the last try. This makes it hard to adjust the bouncers as we have no clues from the last try;
2) The concept isn't new and the simplistic graphics don't give it the twist needed to stand out.
3) same about the silence;
4) The score makes no sense. It would reset together with the level, but each time to a different number. At some point my score went negative(!).

On the plus side, if this is a first project, well done, you managed physics beautifully and there's a lot of potential to what you could come up with.

I like it

It's a wonderful play on physics, I can see that was the main focus with the game. Didn't mind the absence of music so much, although a tune couldn't hurt. I'm happy to see a challenge of patience on here, as it's mostly about tweaking the position of the pieces' positions with trial and error. As for suggestions, some color would be nice, and maybe even have different colored pieces which affect the ball in different ways (higher bounce, arched angle launch, etc.). Also, (maybe more of a long-term idea) a sandbox mode would be cool, where you can just add your own pieces and go crazy. Great concept, looking forward to any improvements you go with.
